Couple of Cents asked in PetsDogs · 1 decade ago

My dog is eating my other dog's poop?

Why, and how can I get him to stop. It is so disgusting, and he is getting fat off of it. I almost want to stop feeding him regular dog food.

    there is no resound a dog is a grazer on others poop or there own but there are a few tricks to make it taste bad to them.

    First you could put meat tenderizer in the food they eat, has no flavor to them but makes poop taste bad.This comes in a powder you can get at local grocery store.

    second feed dogs bananas this also makes poop taste bad

    Thirdly make sure you pick up messes every day and dispose of this.

    Good luck

    It wil continue if there is no disapproval from you. Get a playtoy and while your hand is open and under his chin practise saying "drop" when he has it in his mouth. If he drops it, then he now understands what he must do if you order him to drop the poop. If he continues just get really disgusted and disappointing sounding like bllleeeccccchhh! or YYuuuuckkk!

    Keep your eye on him at all times while on walks and when he is in the yard. If not, the animals lifespan will be shortened.

    Put a 1/2 teaspoonn of meat tenderizer in BOTH dog's food. It won't hurt them, but after digesting, it will cause the poop to smell "unappetizing" to them.

    just don't let him lick you in the face!
